Incomplete Love

You were like an angel when we did meet,

You swept me away off my feet.

You held me close and hugged me tight,

And planted on my cheek a kiss so light!

You came to my ear and whispered to me,

Never in this life will I ever leave thee.

Our love, you said, was so gentle and pure,

Forever and always all darkness it shall endure.

'You are my princess', you always said,

I smiled with pride, your eyes I read

The eyes that sparkled like the stars above,

The eyes that spoke of nothing but Love.

Our love swelled like a raging sea,

Until you said, 'I'll be back,wait for me'.

The wait lasted for nights and day,

Before I realized you had gone away.

Years have passed, such lonely years,

I still think of you, still feel u near.

These were yesterdays that I still adore,

These are memories with You no more.

Adios

I had never thought goodbyes could hurt so much.

Its strange when I sit back and think of those people who have taken a lazy stroll on my life's pathway. Some came walking in a leisurely manner, some made a sensational entry, while others were there even without me realizing that they were there... But the common thing among all of them were, they came never to stay.

Some part ways to meet again, and some part ways never to meet again. The latter one hurts. Even if I never had a chance to converse with the person. The girl in a pony-tail who used to sit in the second last bench in class VI A... yes the one who left school in class VII... was never my friend. But our paths did cross. I don't know where she is now. But I know our paths will never cross again. Or maybe that chaiwala, who made the best lemon tea I have ever tasted, stepped out of my life the day we migrated to a different city. I know I will never go back to that city, to that tea stall. So, forever goodbye it was.

Promises always tags along with goodbyes. Promises of keeping in touch. So many text messages everyday... then once a day... gradually once a week, to once a month then once a year... maybe not even that. That's what we promised. Promised to get so busy with our life, that we, in a way, make sure that our paths don't cross.

Yes... I absolutely dislike goodbyes.

Just another text message

Few days ago, i received a text from one of my dearest friends. What I read, actually made me start thinking. And I thought of setting your thoughts into motion too....

I have seen castles made out of sand,
Met people who believe destiny is engraved on the palm of their hands...
I have seen people change their faith,
Experienced love change into hate,
I have seen people grow younger with age,
And a bird who wouldn't fly out of an open cage...
I have seen love sold for money,
People who are devastated inside but outside they are funny.
I have seen the unicorn fall in love with the toad,
People who owned half the city,have now hit the road.
I have learnt to expect the unexpected,
Perfection does not exist, we are all defected.
Everyone cries, some just hide their tear,
They say coal turns diamond over a thousand years.
Someone may believe you are one in a million,
For others, you are another nobody in the billion.
So live life with all that you have,
Cherish all your moments, Happy or Sad.
Feel blessed with what you are,
'Coz life is too short, and we can't go too far.....

Why is it that at times I feel so depressed, down and disappointed? Its the gloomy weather, I guess. Or is it? There are times when the sun is shining with all its might, yet I'm feeling blue. Is it the hot weather? I guess not.

Then what is it that at times make me feel so small, so unwanted? At those times I feel I have not done justice with the people around me. I could never become the daughter my parents wanted or the elder sister that I should have been to my sibling. I failed to love the person I love. Have I done any good to my friends? I dont think so too...

I feel like venting out my bottled up feelings. They make me feel so nasty and crappy.

I wanna shout out and cry... But I am strong.. Or am I?
